How to Migrate to PyInstaller 2.0

Work in Progress

Changes to the command line tools and options

  • Configure.py is gone, it's simply not needed any more.
  • The option --configfile is gone in all tools. The config-file has been eliminated.
  • Makespec.py: option --tk is gone. It is no longer required, simply remove it.
  • pyinstaller.py: options --tk and --skip-configure (which was undocumented) are gone. They are no longer required, simply remove them.
  • The following utilities are now in utils/:
    • ArchiveViewer.py
    • BinDepend.py
    • Build.py
    • Configure.py
    • Crypt.py
    • GrabVersion.py
    • MakeComServer.py
    • Makespec.py

Changes to the spec file

  • Remove the following parts from your spec file:
    • Todo: all references to the script support/_mountzlib.py.
    • all references to the script support/useUnicode.py.
    • all references to the scripts support/useTK.py, support/unpackTK.py and support/removeTK.py.
    • all references to the TkTree() and !TkPKG()
    • Some config elements are gone. These are undocumented and you should not have used them at all.
